If not, We Make the Road By Walking is a good place to start: it's a dialogue between them where they talk about Horton's Highlander Folk School and the citizenship schools he and many others ran, and Freire's work in Brazilian community & collective education. Freire's Pedagogy of Freedom is good too. Look up Tory Sammartino -- she is or was the director of Voices Unbroken (in NYC), writing workshops designed to let people (including homeless young people and incarcerated people) both develop both their own creative work and become leaders of workshops. GOOD LUCK and lots of strength! Are you familiar with the work of Myles Horton and Paulo Freire?
